Oh, I actually think the Oscar is overrated - don't get me wrong, a lot of wonderful actors have won it. I think his incredible body of work speaks for itself. He has transcended the Oscar, IMO. Plus, he did a lot of great work where he would have won something besides an Oscar, like an Emmy or a Golden Globe. He did win the TV Choice Award for Peaky Blinders (which he was perfection in). Plus, there is the Oscar curse. Quite a number of actors' careers went down the tubes after winning the Oscar. I bet he doesn't even care about the Oscar anyway.

It's so easy to see why he's Nolan's go-to actor. They're very much alike in their understated manner of doing the best work possible without trying to boast or live up to their reputations. They share a kind of intimate privacy about their personal lives, even as they're excited and willing to talk about their work. But at the end of the day they're two gentlemen who do their best work without too much hype about it being their best work and let the final product speak for itself. They're almost like the same person in different roles; Chris is like if Cillian was a director, and Cillian is like Chris if he was an actor.

a past movie of Cillian's that I'd heartily recommend to others, it's very underrated, is the thriller RED LIGHTS. He co-stars as the member of a team that's in the business of basically debunking psychics. Deniro, Sigourney Weaver, Elizabeth Olsen, just incredible cast. It didn't do much at the box office I think, but it's a very engrossing watch that really keeps you guessing.
